Fun with uv and PEP 723

Fun with uv and PEP 723 June 24, 2025 For the longest time, I have been frustrated with Python because I couldn’t use it for one-off scripts. I had to first ensure it was running in an environment where it could find the right Python version and the dependencies installed. That is now a thing of the past. If you are not a Pythonista (or one possibly living under a rock), uv is an extremely fast Python package and project manager, written in Rust. uv also provides this nifty tool called uvx (k

9 Best Cat Water Fountains, WIRED Tested and Reviewed (2025)

Others We Tested Petkit Eversweet Max for $80: This tech-y automatic fountain can be either cordless or battery-powered (lasting up to 83 days), and the drinking bowl is made of stainless steel, but the reservoir is plastic. Because of the shape of the basin with the chunky battery and reservoir bowl, it’s a little awkward to clean. The app logs every time a pet drinks and compares it over time to determine whether your cat’s drinking habits have changed. The app also keeps track of when the fi

New space startup Lux Aeterna wants to make satellites reusable

Satellites can accomplish incredible tasks like provide internet, or help monitor wildfires. But many of them ultimately meet a fiery death burning up in the Earth’s atmosphere. Others use their last bit of fuel to move to so-called “graveyard” orbits, where they circle the planet in a perpetual deep freeze. A new startup called Lux Aeterna wants to change this. The Denver-based company, which is coming out of stealth today, has designed a reusable satellite called Delphi that it aims to launch

The Secret Reason So Many College Students Are Relying on AI Is Incredibly Sad

According to a new study, a staggering majority of American college students are using artificial intelligence in their studies — and the reason why is a pathos-laden dispatch from an education system in crisis. In a new study in the journal Tech Trends, researchers from the University of North Carolina at Charlotte found not only that most students are now using AI to assist in their schoolwork, but also that many prefer the technology for a tragic reason: because it doesn't judge them like a

The Debrief: Power and energy

Yet in many ways right now the US seems to be forgetting those lessons. It is moving backward in terms of its clean-­energy strategy, especially when it comes to powering the grid, in ways that will affect the nation for decades to come—even as China and others are surging forward. And that retreat is taking place just as electricity demand and usage are growing again after being flat for nearly two decades. That growth, according to the US Energy Information Administration, is “coming from the

The Bank Secrecy Act is failing everyone. It’s time to rethink financial surveillance.

The US is on the brink of enacting rules for digital assets, with growing bipartisan momentum to modernize our financial system. But amid all the talk about innovation and global competitiveness, one issue has been glaringly absent: financial privacy. As we build the digital infrastructure of the 21st century, we need to talk about not just what’s possible but what’s acceptable. That means confronting the expanding surveillance powers quietly embedded in our financial system, which today can tra
